Description
Magical melodies.
Traditional melodies from Ireland, England and Scotland touch our hearts in an almost magical way.
On this production the duo spirit & pleasure opens insights into the musical world of these three Anglo-Saxon countries in the 17th and 18th century.
You can hear old pieces that were only passed down aurally for a very long time, as well as newly composed music in the traditional style.
Even composers of the baroque period, who would rather be assigned to courtly or bourgeois music, discovered the charm of these melodies, provided them with basso continuo and variations and published them, such as the Englishman Francesco Geminiani in his Treatise of Good Taste in the Art of Music.
